(Virgil Warner - Ernie Rowell)

When the music's playin' loud I can blend in with the crowd
Lose myself inside a hurtin' song
That's the only time I'm right so when the moon comes out at night
I just can't leave those honky tonks alone.

Can't leave those honky tonks alone
They're like a second home to me
Can't leave those honk tonks alone
So if you find me gone that's where I'll be.

--- Instrumental ---

Everyone looks fine when you're looking through the wine
Listenin' to a good ole country song
And if everything gets right I could fall in love tonight
No I just can't leave those honk tonks alone.

Can't leave those honky tonks alone
They're like a second home to me
Can't leave those honk tonks alone
So if you find me gone that's where I'll be.

Can't leave those honk tonks alone...
